Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 85% synthetics via lab testing to confirm Chapter 60 classification
• Provide mill certificates showing unbleached status to avoid misclassification as dyed (6006.32)
• Declare width and weight accurately, as statistical suffixes may apply for narrow (<30cm) fabrics
